It’s almost here. The CFBD Starter Pack drops in the morning. It's been a long time coming. I hope it makes building your first model easier, faster, and more fun. Here’s a quiet preview 🧵

hi, no thanks @hmmvryintrstng.bsky.social · 02/04/2025

james surowiecki has discovered where the completely fabricated trump tariff rate has come from for each country "...for every country, they just took our trade deficit with that country and divided it by the country's exports to us."

Just figured out where these fake tariff rates come from. They didn't actually calculate tariff rates + non-tariff barriers, as they say they did. Instead, for every country, they just took our trade deficit with that country and divided it by the country's exports to us.

So we have a $17.9 billion trade deficit with Indonesia. Its exports to us are $28 billion. $17.9/$28 = 64%, which Trump claims is the tariff rate Indonesia charges us. What extraordinary nonsense this is.

The 2025 NFL draft QBs career FBS passing yards sectioned off by depth of target. So for example, 38.7% of Shedeur Sanders career passing yards came on targets less than 5 yards downfield

UMass landed Yale LB transfer Dean Shaffer, and I'm mainly telling you this so I can show you how he transformed from "classic Ivy League linebacker" into The Joker.

Interesting! I was a little bummed the momentum slowed down over here but slow steady growth might be more sustainable long term

In other words, if the very top of college football this year feels like it might be a tick below the very top of college football over most of the last 10 years, the numbers back that up.

I want to live in a world where more than a few games on everybody’s schedule “count” because we decided to draw a line at 25 rather than discuss the results of every game.

Agreed! I’ll go a step further: based on what I’ve read about how the room operates and the presentation of the data they use, I think they also do themselves and the *process* a disservice. They apparently don’t consider the value (or lack thereof) of half or more of the game results.

I like this idea! I think the committee does themselves a discredit by cherry picking certain results as talking points during the rankings show. Interesting how Oregon has been so consistent but hasn't hit the highs others have.

Do we know exactly what pieces of data the committee is seeing? Can we publish that somewhere? Feels like an easy way to bring transparency to the process. Then convo becomes about the quality of metrics provided vs committee conspiracy theories

a feed is a thing you subscribe to for the posts, while a list is a list of users (kind of like a starter pack without the follow-all button) you can subscribe to feeds ("pin it to home") and then the main "following" algo will bring in posts from other feeds as well

an example of the nflverse feed popping up in the following tab, prefixed with "from #nflverse feed"
